How To Animate Handwriting In Anime Studio

This is a tutorial on how to animate the effect of hand writing text. You can use this to animate a character drawing a picture, writing a letter or use it as an effect to show something getting scrubbed of. It requires a little bit of masking, tracing,the stroke exposure tool and the follow path tool.

Would it be possible to replace it with a Hand with pencil just like video scribe does !
Can we apply it to images as well , What if we want to move the hand in and out of the scene . . ( I mean hand doesn't appear all the time )
